Beating the sleekest :: Vivo X5 Max Reviews

Vivo has launched new smartphones in India few months back. Most exciting phone that the company has launched is Vivo X5 Max which company claims to be the slimmest phone in the market. Phones like Gionee S 5.1 and Oppo R5 are also the slimmest phones but it seems that companies have done little sacrifices with these phones to make them slimmer. Now let’s see where X5 Max stands in the market??

Talking about its design it looks very much similar to Oppo R5. Both the phones are made up of good quality of plastics and metal. Companies are not offering many color schemes as they are only available in white/grey color schemes which will disappoint the buyers a little. It comes with 5.5 inches of screen and has a resolution of 1080×1920. The X5 max weighs 156 grams which makes it light enough to hold comfortably in our hands. The thickness of the phone is 4.75mm. But we didn’t see much difference in the thickness of X5 max, Gionee’s 5.1 and Oppo R5.

The phone has Android version of 4.4.4 and comes with Qualcomm’s latest mid-range octa-core processor, the Snapdragon 615. It has 1.7 GHz cortex A 53 cores and 1.0 GHz cortex A 53, with an adreno 405 GPU for graphics. It comes with 2 GB of RAM along with 16 GB of ROM with can be expanded to 128 GB. There’s only one place available for both Nano sim and SD card slot. This means you can’t use both Sims at one time if you want to increase your storage.

The Vivo X5 max has 13 MP of primary camera and 5 MP of secondary camera. The back camera captures good detailing photos but we noticed there was a bit lack of color distortion. It also struggled capturing photos in the low light. But front camera impresses the most. The camera captures good detailing selfies.

The phone comes with 2300 mAH of battery. The phone battery also impresses us. Battery can last up to 1 and half day with working conditions which is great for a slim phone. Thus, the entire phone has quite impressed us. It is better build, nice design, and good battery life. Only it lacks in back camera quality otherwise the phone is a good all-rounder.
